dear friends you must have seen the firework show along the the Bosphorus and over the bosphorus bridge. @_ladybird_ you try to be sarcastic everytime, it �s very clever of you! But I �ve already celebrated it with my friends and the party in our house with a view of bosphorus bridge is still going on. wish you were here, too:) on the other hand, can you think of a better celebration of one �s national festival than declaring it to all the world even if it �s via a website?

Hi vardaki Glad to find here someone from Cyprus. My opinion, enough is enough, isn �t it? Again, mr.dgdln, my congratulations; now, what about if we, all of us, start thinking that the day is almost over, so let �s start talking about other stuff. Tomorrow, this is, in a few hours, we will start celebrating Halloween, the great Celtic tradition. Ancient Celtic people lived here, in my country, many years ago, so, may be because of that I have a lot of tender for this celebration. It is a very interesting way of discovering how cultures and civilizations melt through the centuries, what belongs to one culture, and to another. Anyone wants to start a thread about Halloween, a quizz? I �ll come back, in a while, but for now, I am STARVING? Anyone to have dinner with me ? You �re most welcome Linda

I don �t always see all the threads Nikadixon because I do : go to work correct essays go to teacher �s meetings go to parent, teacher, student meetings prepare for tomorrow �s lessons make worksheets and try to have a life. Mr D  - Even though you speak and write English well, often what we native members write here is often Lost in Translation with you. I �m neither angry or feel rage. And I never meant to be provocative. You just don �t have a feel for the way things are said, and often take them as a personal insult - even though that is not the case or intention.  I could also imagine British/American/ Australian irony is lost on you too. Our cultures are apparently very different, and what might seem like an insult in your culture is not meant as such in ours. To truly understand another language, you must also understand its humor. So before you start reading ulterior intentions into our words - stop and think before you react. L
